Description: Supplies port configuration and hardware management objects for the Compaq/HP N5226A network switch.

Start monitoring vendor-neutral, standards-based MIB, any SNMPv3-capable network device (SNMP engine identity/boot/clock status) with a free 30-day trial of IPNetwork Monitor. Import MIBs, browse SNMP OIDs, create custom SNMP monitors, configure alerts, and monitor any SNMP-enabled network device from a single console.

What Is CPQN5226A-MIB?

CPQN5226A-MIB is a Compaq (later HP) vendor MIB for the N5226A network switch product, covering hardware and runtime software management for this specific switch model. It exposes a mix of configuration (VT100 console screen refresh, switch mode type, create timeout), software/firmware wear indicators (booter and runtime flash write-cycle counts), and hardware health data including a power supply status table and memory allocation statistics. This gives it clear device-status monitoring value: cpqn52nnPowerSupplyTable/cpqn52nnPsStatus reveals power supply failures, cpqn52nnMemAllocFailure flags memory exhaustion, and the booter/runtime write-cycle counters act as a flash-wear/longevity health indicator for the switch's persistent storage. It is a self-contained Compaq enterprise MIB with no strong dependency on external standard MIBs beyond basic SNMP. It was deployed on Compaq/HP N5226A network switches in enterprise data closets during the late 1990s/early 2000s. Engineers can download the CPQN5226A-MIB file directly to load it into their MIB browser.

IPNetwork Monitor allows you to monitor SNMP objects defined in CPQN5226A-MIB. Use the built-in SNMP Monitoring Browser to explore available variables, view their current values and descriptions, and select the objects you want to monitor. You can then create SNMP monitors, configure thresholds, and receive alerts when monitored values change.

Supported Devices

  • Compaq/HP N5226A network switch

Monitoring Examples

An operator would poll cpqn52nnPowerSupplyTable/cpqn52nnPowerSupplyEntry keyed by cpqn52nnPsIndex to check cpqn52nnPsStatus for a failed or missing power supply in a redundant-PSU configuration. Watching cpqn52nnMemAllocFailure for a nonzero/incrementing count combined with cpqn52nnMaxMemory would indicate the switch is running low on memory, while a climbing cpqn52nnBooterWriteCycles or cpqn52nnRuntimeWriteCycles count over the device's lifetime signals approaching flash-storage wear limits.

What Can Be Monitored

  • power supply status
  • memory allocation failures
  • flash write-cycle counts (booter/runtime)
  • switch mode type configuration
